** Also, in the climax of his fight with Goku, he had the gall to beg for mercy when he ended up cutting himself in half with his own attack, to which Goku angrily reminds him that many innocent people begged him to spare them and he showed no mercy whatsoever towards them.

So Raditz resorts to kidnapping Goku's son, Gohan, and threatens (depending on translation) to kill Gohan unless Goku slays 100 earthlings in a day, or he'll raise Gohan as a "proper" Saiyan warrior. End result is a battle to the death between the two brothers, with Piccolo pulling an EnemyMine with Goku.

* During the original ''Manga/DragonBall'', Tien and the Crane Hermit swear revenge against Goku for killing Mercenary Tao, who happens to be the Crane Hermit's brother. Goku counters that Tao attacked him since he was sent to kill him and he only defended himself. Neither one of them cares. Tien eventually grows past this when he realizes how vile Tao and the Crane Hermit are.
* King Piccolo is furious that Goku killed his minions/children and personally confronts him over it, and yet, he himself was indirectly responsible for the death of Goku's best friend Krillin, as well as countless other innocents.
* King Piccolo's son, Piccolo Jr, is just as bad. He hates Goku and wants to kill him to avenge his father and take over the world. Goku killed his father because he coldly murdered a number of Goku's friends. Ironically, after Piccolo kills Goku though in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', the circumstances (Goku was holding down Raditz so Piccolo could shoot him) means he has no satisfaction with it and trains Gohan out of his final request, causing his HeelFaceTurn. Piccolo is now one of the most moral and centered characters.
* In ''Anime/DragonBallZBardockTheFatherOfGoku'', Bardock is furious that his crew is betrayed and murdered by Frieza's men and goes on a bloody rampage to avenge them. Although noble and understandable, Bardock and his crew are still hired murderers who regularly perform genocide.
* Similar to Bardock, Vegeta despises Frieza for destroying his planet and driving the Saiyan race to the brink of extinction. This is despite Vegeta being a planetary pirate who destroyed a number of species and murdered his own partner, Nappa, for getting injured and refused to even consider bring Raditz back because he considered him a weakling.

This is best exemplified when Trunks, having [[TookALevelInBadass become much stronger]] thanks to his experiences in the past, returns, effortlessly kicks their asses, and kills 18, and 17 furiously calls him on it, despite the fact that both 17 ''and'' 18 had spent ''twenty years'' rampaging across the Earth killing whoever and whenever they wanted ForTheEvulz.

'''Babidi''': Help! Don't lecture me!\\
'''Piccolo''': You don't like being hurt, do you? But you delight in hurting others. You're right. You don't need a lecture. You need to be exterminated.
* Beerus introduced in ''Anime/DragonBallZBattleOfGods'' hates when others don't show him the proper amount of respect since he's a god. However, don't expect him to show any respect for others, even the Kais who are supposed to be his equals and counterparts. [[spoiler: Or Whis who is his mentor and teacher.]]
* Zamasu from ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' hates all mortal life, viewing them as brutal, selfish beings that abuse their god-given gifts to commit atrocities and kill each other, but he himself commits similar acts throughout the Future Trunks Saga. Present Zamasu is [[spoiler: perfectly willing to kill his own master to advance his goals (and in the timeline where [[EvilTwin Goku Black]] hails, he ''succeeded''), Goku Black's first act upon stealing Goku's body was to murder Goku and his entire family [[EvilIsPetty purely out of spite for Goku beating him in their sparring match]], and Future Zamasu uses ''his'' god-given gifts to slaughter entire planets, as well as his fellow gods, without a flicker of remorse.]] When [[spoiler: Future Zamasu and Goku Black [[FusionDance fuse]], Merged Zamasu even invokes this trope in regards to Goku and Vegeta fusing into Vegito, stating that "what becomes good when done by gods becomes evil when done by mortals... and becomes sin."]]
* Baby from ''Anime/DragonBallGT'' wants revenge against the Saiyans for killing all the Tuffles. To achieve that end, he enslaves everyone on Earth, a race that had absolutely ''nothing'' to do with the Saiyans/Tuffle conflict, and attacks Goku and his family who were born long after the war. When Pan points out that the Saiyans who murdered his race are long dead, Baby tells her point-blank that he doesn't care.
* King Piccolo is furious that Goku killed his minions/children and personally confronts him over it, and yet, he himself was indirectly responsible for the death of Goku's best friend Krillin, as well as countless other innocents.
* King Piccolo's son, Piccolo Jr, is just as bad. He hates Goku and wants to kill him to avenge his father and take over the world. Goku killed his father because he coldly murdered a number of Goku's friends. After Piccolo kills Goku though in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', the circumstances(Goku was holding down Raditz so Piccolo could shoot him) means he has no satisfaction with it and trains Gohan out of his final request, causing his HeelFaceTurn. Piccolo is now one of the most moral and centered characters.
* In ''Anime/DragonBallZBardockTheFatherOfGoku'', Bardock is furious that his crew is betrayed and murdered by Frieza's men and goes on a bloody rampage to avenge them. Although noble and understandable, Bardock and his crew are still hired murderers who regularly perform genocide.
* Similar to Bardock, Vegeta despises Frieza for destroying his planet and driving the Saiyan race to the brink of extinction. This is despite Vegeta being a planetary pirate who destroyed a number of species and murdered his own partner, Nappa, for getting injured and refused to even consider bring Raditz back because he considered him a weakling.
* In the Android Saga, when Android 19 and Dr. Gero/Android 20 show up, they slaughter an entire city full of innocent people, with 19 [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown beating on a sick Goku and sucking the life out of him]]. Then Vegeta shows up and beats 19 so thoroughly that 19 tries to run for his life, after which Gero screams at him that it's enough; as Vegeta points out, Gero and 19 had come to destroy the Z Fighters, and it's only "enough" because Gero is losing.
* Gero's entire grudge against Goku. He ''hates'' Goku because he destroyed the Red Ribbon Army. The same army that mercilessly murdered hundreds, including its own members, and Gero built them multiple killer androids for them to do just that, all so Commander Red could use the Dragon Balls to make himself ''taller.'' Granted, no one knew about what Commander Red really wanted to do with the Dragon Balls, and later material specifies that it was more because Dr. Gero's ''son'' was part of the RR (and indeed Android 16 was based on him); while still understandable, Gero's grudge is still incredibly myopic because his son fought in the Red Ribbons for a Commander who [[BadBoss didn't care]] and a cause that would have made the world a worst place.
* The villainous Androids 17 and 18 from Trunks' BadFuture. This is best exemplified when Trunks, having [[TookALevelInBadass become much stronger]] thanks to his experiences in the past, returns, effortlessly kicks their asses, and kills 18, and 17 furiously calls him on it, despite the fact that both 17 ''and'' 18 had spent ''twenty years'' rampaging across the Earth killing whoever and whenever they wanted ForTheEvulz. Trunks even [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech calls 17 out on it]] before killing him as well.
-->'''Trunks''': You think this life [[ItsAllAboutMe is all about you]], don't you? What about the others? The ones that ''you two'' killed?!
* Babidi wants to kill the Supreme Kai because he killed his father to stop Majin Buu's rampage. Babidi's father caused the death of millions if not billions by unleashing Buu, including all of the Supreme Kais except one. Babidi also regularly murders others, including his own men, without care. Piccolo calls him out on it after [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe cuts him in half]], and Babidi [[EntitledBastard has the gall to beg him for help]].
-->'''Piccolo''': When you help others, you receive help. When's the last time you used your powers to help someone? I'll bet it's been a while, hasn't it?\\
